I'm a long way from the Linville Gorge. As long as I'm in a hammock, I don't care where I'm at.

Truth!

Great way to start the day

(The Grande Loop is calling, and you must go )

Thinking the Grand Loop may be put off 'cause of my dang foot. Who knows though. I do feel shorter hiking days coming. Hickery don't care either way.

No....died shortly after.......place of honor for that camera.

I was trying to throw very close to it for a shot. Too close I dare say)))))

Enjoying some hammock time in a rain storm, can't beat that.
Bummer about your foot but I'm glad it won't get in the way of some fun times in the gorge with your friend.

Shorter hiking days....for sure until I see how the foot reacts. Grand Loop may have to wait!

My wife has that exact camera... minus the hole in the front. But the hhole looks like nothing a bit of duct tape wouldn't fix. Give it character. Enter it in the "Toughest Backpacker's Camera" contest.

Can't revive the camera. It held on a bit and died a Glorious Death.

I appreciate that.

I have some SF....the blue ones. May upgrade. Man, those SF stink on a backpacking trip!!!! At least mine do.

Y'elcome and thanks.

I kinda knew I was going to hit it. Must sacrifice for good video.....

But seeing as I'm not under the tarp nor having to go in the morning, I can vicariously enjoy that through the video

RIP stunt camera. T'was an honorable end, the stunt camera equivalent of dying with its boots on (perhaps not such a great metaphor when you're talking of some pretty serious Gorge hiking with that foot of yours )

It truly is!
My foot is not healing as fast as I would like. but...I know I need to stay off of it more but it is hard.
The Gorge will start with shorter hiking days. We were going for the Grand Loop but....wel.....we shall see.
